PVL: BanKo clinches semis spot, downs PacificTown-Army for 10th win

BanKo Perlas assured itself of a semifinals seat after turning back PacificTown-Army, 25-27, 25-20, 25-22, 21-25, 15-9, Sunday in the Premier Volleyball League Open Conference at University of St. La Salle Gym in Bacolod City. Sue Roces scored two of the Perlas Spikers’ last three points, including a massive block on Army top gun Honey Royse Tubino, to lead her team to a 10-5 record. The Lady Troopers fell to 6-7 and still have a mathematical chance of making the Final Four. But they will have to win all three remaining games and pray PetroGazz and Motolite drop all their matches.
